The list of companies trading below their net current asset value continues to rise to levels we have not seen since the tech bubble burst. As of last count there were:
433 companies with market caps greater than $5 million trading below their NCAV, including:
58 above $100 million
24 above $200 million

The difference between what we are seeing now and post tech bubble, is that today’s net/nets are of much higher quality then what we saw in the early 2000’s. There are dozens of profitable companies, many are loaded with cash on a relative basis, and more than we’ve ever seen trading below 2/3 of NCAV. In the coming weeks, we’ll reveal some of the more interesting names in various categories, starting with:
